Last updated: 8/21/12 1:46 PM


Horse Racing Radio Network (HRRN), the Eclipse Award-winning broadcast
organization based in Lexington, Kentucky, announced Tuesday plans to expand
their extensive race coverage schedule with the debut of HRRNLive! this
Wednesday. The new show will be broadcast nationwide on XM channel 209 and
feature live coverage of races from designated tracks across the country.
HRRNLive! debuts with a four hour broadcast Wednesday through Monday from 3-7
p.m. (EDT), with analysis, live race calls and exclusive interviews.

“TVG and HRTV provide tremendous coverage on the television side every day
and HRRNLive! will fill the void for this type of coverage on the radio,” HRRN
President Mike Penna said. “We’ve had countless horsemen and fans tell us they
wish they could listen to races when they are in their car or away from their
TV. Horse racing is a sport crying out for greater exposure and it’s extremely
exciting to be working with the great team at SiriusXM to provide this coverage
to listeners across the country.”

HRRN plans to host the new HRRNLive! shows on-site from Saratoga this week as
the network returns to the historic track to provide live coverage of the Grade
1 Ballerina, Grade 1 Travers and Grade 1 Personal Ensign. In addition, fans can
tune-in to exclusive coverage of the Grade 1 Pacific Classic from Del Mar on
Sunday.

HRRN’s popular weekly talk show, the Equine Forum, debuted on Sirius 93/XM
209 this past Saturday and will be carried each week as part of HRRN’s expanded
offerings. The Equine Forum airs Saturday mornings from 8-10 a.m. (EDT).

SiriusXM will also make all of the coverage available through their internet
and smart phone applications on channel 862.

Penna, who also serves as HRRN host, will anchor the new coverage along with
analysts Jude Feld, Sean Clancy, Kurt Becker and Duane Amos. More information is
